Ostrava vs Slavia Prague Prediction & Betting tips
The Czech league has made an “extra round” this season. After the 30 games in the regular season, the top six again completed a game against each other. Unlike in Austria, however, the points were not shared after the basic round. Last weekend, Slavia Prague fixed the 19th championship title of the club’s history and could make the double perfect on Wednesday night. In the Czech cup final, there is a duel between Banik Ostrava and Slavia Prague!
After 34 league games, the champion from Prague and the table sixth from Ostrava are separated by no less than 34 points. Given this class difference, the favorite role is clearly located at the master from the capital. For a favorite win in the regular season between Banik Ostrava and Slavia Prague odds of a maximum of 1.50 are offered for a corresponding tip. The venue for the final is the Andruv Stadion in Olomouc, the start of the match is on Wednesday evening at 18:15.
Banik Ostrava:
The Czech Cup competition is the last chance for Banik Ostrava to qualify for the UEFA Europa League. The last few weeks were a real horror. After the team showed quite successful football over long stretches of the season, things did not go according to plan in recent games. In the baseline of the Czech Fortuna League only two of the last nine league games were won. Despite the weak results, the club continues to stick to head coach Bohumil panic. His last name is not yet a program, although the games in the championship round are a bitter disappointment. In the four previous games, not only was there not a single victory, but not even scored a goal. After all, the results from game to game were “better” – 0: 4, 0: 3, 0: 2, 0: 1 and 0: 0 were the results in the recent five games.
These results are also not necessarily conducive to the final in the cup competition. The cup competition was the last title that the Czechs won. In the 2004/05 season there was the only cup victory – the wait should have an end. However, according to current odds, Banik Ostrava is considered a blatant outsider against Slavia Prague and the triumph would be a big surprise.
The hopes rest with the outsider, especially on the shoulders of club legend Milan Baros. The former world-class striker is now 37 years old. Last weekend he was back in the league for the first time after he had to pass due to injury. He scored six goals in 16 league games. Depending on the game, he should underpin his hero status in the final phase again.
Slavia Prague:
The current season began completely disappointing for the team of head coach Jindrich Trpisovsky. The Czech Republic defeated Dynamo Kiev in UEFA Champions League qualifying. This setback, however, the team has coped well and then completed an outstanding season. The 19th championship title of the club’s history is absolutely deserved. Slavia Prague has caused a sensation not only on the national stage this season, but also internationally. After the break against the Ukrainians, the Czechs started in the Europa League. The run (including the elimination of the Andalusian top club Sevilla) was stopped only in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League by Chelsea London. Through these achievements, the players of Slavia Prague have already proud 52 competitive games in the legs this season. An English week chased the next, the load was extremely high. All the more was the joy of last weekend, when the team thanks to the goalless draw against Banik Ostrava could secure the title win. The advantage of meanwhile nine points melted in the last weeks. Three points cushion before the last match day are sufficient, as in scoring the direct comparison counts – and this Slavia Prague has won against Viktoria Pilsen for themselves.
Next weekend, in the last league game of the year, the prestige duel against city rivals Sparta Prague is on the program. However, it is first to fix the double. For the capital Elf, it would be the first for no less than 77 years. Last time this triumph succeeded in the 1942 season! Given the dominance over long stretches of the season, this title would be fully deserved. Despite a goalless draw last weekend, on Wednesday evening in Olmüz between Banik Ostrava and Slavia Prague a predictive vote in favor of the champion is the logical choice. The squad has a lot of quality with players like Miroslav Stoch or Josef Husbauer. The recent results were not outstanding, but compared to the opponent from Ostrava, the quality difference is not to be dismissed.
